"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming.
Another interesting note, I was an extra in a movie called Circle of Friends, that they shot near where I live in Ireland. Chris O'Donell (who?) was the star and he is a very short guy, I've seen a few famous shorties including Gabriel Byrne, who is quite short, Bono, who is short, and I don't know, sorry, I've lost interest now.

Down the street from us was San Dimas High, where they filmed Bill and Ted, we used to laugh about that all the time, I love that silly flick.

Hey Snooze, mad coincidence number 2, well I am in the dancehall scene, and most of the people in that scene and quite a few others are all my friends from school as we all come from the same town, my sister is one of the girls as well. Unfortunatly, (well actually no) I am not very visible, though of course everyone else I know is, which is a pain in the arse. That room where they held the ballroom scene is the same one that I had my debs (prom) in, funny eh? Actually I have very fond memories of making that film, being an extra was brilliant as we all knew each other and we worked as a large team to annoy all the hollywood people. We also got paid £70 a day, which when I was a poor student in 1992 or whenever it was, was a complete fortune. They fed us, gave us real beer and fags as props, which we went through like a dose of the runs. And we had a strike because a world cup qualifier between Ireland and Holland was on during one of the night shoots, the Hollywood people were furious, but we just told em to shove it, as they didn't have time to find another 200 people in time, brilliant fun. I havn't actually seen it since it came out, as I don't really like them type of films, but I should have a look for the laugh. :wah:
